How to apply

How to apply in three easy steps

Ready to take up the challenge and start working towards your Award? We’ve made registration easy – get ready for the adventure you’ve been looking for!

Step 1: find a licensed operator

Check with your school or local youth group to see if they are a licensed operator of the Bridge Award. If they are, you can get a Participant Application form from them and sign up straight away. If not, you can still participate.

Step 2: sign up

If you have been unable to find a licensed operator, fill out the Participant application form (PDF 332 kB) (RTF 322 kB) and return it along with the application fee (see below) to the State Award Office.

Step 3: get ready for Bridge!

Once your application has been processed you will receive your Award record book from your Award Coordinator (the person who runs the Award at your school or organisation) or directly from the State Award Office. Then you have officially become a Bridge Award participant and are ready to take the first steps towards your Award.

Cost

In Queensland, it currently costs $21* (*includes GST) to do The Bridge Award.
This fee covers your insurance, record book, badge and certificate. Additional costs may be involved depending on the types of activities you choose to do for your Award. Some schools and organisations may charge for additional services, so make sure you check with your Award coordinator.
